Disclaimer: I do not own Charmed. You know the rest
Note: Just want to say thank you to bea0001, darkVlight, Melinda Wyatt Charmed. I really love reading your reviews.
The center of the page was filled with another clue. A smile quickly spread across Melinda's face. She turned to Derik, and gave him a big hug. She was so happy that they were on there way to helping her family. She was so thankful that Derik was there to help her. She wondered what she would have done without his help. It was odd to her how comfortable she felt in his arms, like she could stay there forever.
Derik heart stopped when Melinda had thrown her arms around him in a hug. He hugged her back, just happy that he could be in her embrace. He loved the way her hair smelled, like apples. He knew that they had been hugging a lot time and would have to let go soon, but he didn't want to. That's when she final let go and he did the same, but after letting go of her, he stared into her eyes.
Slightly embarrassed that Derik was staring at her she moved her eyes back to the book. "I think it might be a good idea to read it…..What do you think?" She asked.
He had moved his eyes back down to the book. "Sounds like a plan to me." He told her.
Melinda started to read the writing on the page. "Clue number two: Little tricksters is what they are, they love to hide the keys to your car. Finding them is what you must do, if you really want the next clue." Melinda said.
"Okay so what magical creature is a small little trickster that likes to hide your car keys?" Derik said out loud, more to himself then to Melinda.
"I don't know, there are a lot that are small little tricksters." She told him.
"That's true, but I think the real clue is the part where it said they like to hide your keys."
"That really doesn't help. I mean there could be a lot of creatures that like to hide your keys……I really don't like these clues."
"Well, if they where to easy then they demons would have found the book already." He said sarcastically.
"Yeah, I guess your right." She replied sarcastically. "What could it be?" She said to herself.
"Do you remember any other story that may have been about something hiding keys?" He asked not really expecting an answer.
"Yeah, it's just one about…….." Melinda stopped mid sentence when she realized what the answer was.
"About what?" He asked looking over to her. She was walking back in forth in front of the book.
"Fairies. My mom told me a story about fairies and how they hid aunt Prue's car keys." She explained to him. "It makes perfect sense. It must mean the fairies have the next clue."
"See it wasn't that hard. Was it?"
"No I guess not….Looks like are next stop is to see the fairies." She stated.
"No." Derik told her. "Our next stop is lunch, and then we need to find out where the fairies live before we try to look for them."
"You know I don't mind you being a smart ass." She said angrily. "But I do mind you telling me what 'I have to do.'"
"I…I mean…Um…I'm sorry I wasn't trying to be an ass. I guess I can just be a little bossy some times." He looked down; mad at himself for being such a dick.
Watching him look down, Melinda felt bad she had yelled at him. "Look, its okay, I just don't like being told what to do. Just try not to do it again. K."
"Sure. So what's for lunch? We really should eat before we go off on our next 'adventure'."
"I guess your right." She said rolling her eye and walking out of the attic.
P.S. Need something to do? Why not review?
